Ecs — AWS Solutions Architect Associate Practice Questions
Amazon ECS (Elastic Container Service) is a fully managed container orchestration service that lets you run Docker containers on AWS using either EC2 instances or AWS Fargate as the compute layer. The AWS Solutions Architect Associate exam tests ECS concepts including task definitions, which specify the container image, CPU, memory, networking mode, and IAM role for a workload, as well as services, which maintain a desired count of running tasks and integrate with load balancers. You must understand the difference between the EC2 launch type, where you manage the underlying instances, and the Fargate launch type, where AWS manages the infrastructure. ECS is also tested in the context of auto scaling, VPC networking modes (bridge, host, awsvpc), and integration with ECR for container image storage.
